DANIEL MANNING.
The ExSecretary of the Treasury Finally
Ends His SulferinCs,

ALBANY On. ". December 25th. .-Ex-
Secretary Manning died last evening. He
seemed to rally and brighten considerably
in the morning, TO the surprise of the fam
lily, and about L O'Clock in the afternoon
his son, James H., who had been watching
at his bedside, almost without rest, went
out for short walk in the fresh air. He
returned in few minutes, and entering
the room where the nurse and patient were,
discovered that his father was breathing
faster, with shortened breath The mark
OF death was on his countenance, and, al
though Mr.. Manning had repeatedly re-
quested his family not to witness his pass
ing away, it was deemed best to summon
the household, and in the presence of his
family he quietly and gently ceased to
breathe.
Daniel Manning, ex-Secretary of the United
States Treasury, was born at Albany, n. Y ,

Atlas, a paper afterwards merged into the

others of his personal friends, and recognizing
his abilities placed him in charge of the United

GUT OF THE EARTH.
The United States Leads as the Producer
of Mineral Wealth,

WASHINGTON, December 25th. - The
United States Geological Survey, Major J.
W. Powell, Director, has issued the
statistics of the production of min
erals during 1856. The report gives
primarily the production and value
of every prominent mineral substance
mined in the United States, with compact
statement of the prices, sources of supply,
and technical matters which proved i'm
portant during the year. The total value
of the mineral products, taken as nearly as
possible at the points of production, was
more than 1865 100000, the largest mineral
production yet recorded in any country. In
1885 the value was about $429 600 0OO
Many substances share in this increase,
but particularly iron and steel, which alone
showed an increase of $30,000,0O0 in 1885
Bituminous coal was the most valuable of
the mineral products, but in 1856 it was
passed by pig-iron, which had a higher
total value than silver and gold combined
Wonderful progress is shown in the use
of natural gas, the consumption being
more than double that of 1885, and twenty
times that Of 1888.
1t is estimated that the value of coal dis
placed by natural gas in 1886 was more
than So, 100000. This is slightly less than
half the value of petroleum.

for a Recent Crime.
Coprgla, 1887, By The California Associated Press
New YORK, December 26th-A. M.-Mich.
ael O'Brien, one of the men arrested last
week for obtaining SIS, 1000 worth of silks
from public store houses on an order bear
ing the forged signatures of Custom
house officials, was unknown to In
spector Byrnes and refused to give
any information about himself. The In
spectOr has Just found him out He came
to this city thirty years ago and opened a
chop house that soon became the resort OF
number of intelligent and educated ad-
venturers who mainly made their living
by forgery. Where Brien came from is
not known. He became the leader of the
gang, and they prospered. He married a
respectable woman. who died broken
hearted when she learned his true char
acter. Selling out his chop house,
o Brien opened hotel at Highbridge,
which formed more retired re-
sort for himself and his companions.
They went into counterfeiting, and
sent large quantity of bogus
money to all parts of the country, became
rich, but still pursued their criminal career.
One night a lawyer was drugeed and
robbed at O'Brien's hotel. Wood6ine and
y Brlen were arrested, but escaped punish
ment.
In 1864 900 worth of bonds were OBJ
tanned from the Bank of Commerce on
forged checks. O'Brien and several CON-
panlons were arrested, and one of them,
ira Gaudler, was sent to Sing Sing for five
years. The others, including O'Brien,
managed to get out of the difficulty, either
through political influence or BY jumping

o'Brien and his gang continued their
prosperous career as forgers of checks until
1907, when he and several others were ar
rested for forging a check on the Me-
ehanies' Bank. O'Brien got out on bail
and disappeared. He had not been here

Cleveland said TO bs Preparing Another
Message to Congress.
ICopyight, 1887, By the California Assocated Press
WASHINGTON, December 25th.-When the
President sent his tariff message to Con-
gress he promised to from time to time COM
municate 10 that body such information as
was IN his possession regarding the public
service, as might be required for the pur-
poses OF legislation. 1t is the Presidents
intention to send general message to Con-
gress soon after the holiday recess embrac-
ing such subjects as have come before the
Executive Departments during the summer
that require action by Congress. The death
of ex-Secretary Manning, and the attend
ance of the President at his funeral, may
delay the preparation of this message.
Among the more prominent subjects to
which attention will be called is the report
of the Paeific Railroads Commissioners,
the fisheries dispute, and (it is hoped by
the California Senators and Representa-
tives) the Chinese question. 1t will be re-
membered that when the Chinese indem-
nifty bill to pay for damages caused by the
Rock Springs riots was passed by the House
in the last Congress, Representative Nor
row asked Mr.. Belmont, of New York,
Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Commit
tee, if it was intended to report to the
House bill to further restrict immigra-
ton to this country of the Chinese Bel
mont replied in the negative, and in Ian
guage which led his hearers to believe that
the State Department was negotiating q
new treaty with China, which would cure
the defects in the present restriction law.
Assistant Secretary Porter, at The same
time, said that negotiations for an amend
ment to the treaty were in progress.
California Representatives who have re-
Gently made inquiry at the State Depart
ment learn that no treaty has been nego-
tiated, and-so far as can be learned-no
effort to obtain modification of the exist
ing treaty has been made. Morrow is in
formed at tie State Department that the
reason why no steps have been taken in
the matter is due to the fact that the Chi
nese Minister had been absent from the
city during the entire summer and the
greater part of the fall, and he cannot learn
that any negotiations have even been be-
gun.

4 DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
Two Men Fall From a Train While En-
gagged in a Death Struggle,

MOUNT VERNON (Ky), December 25th.-
Bal Chunley yesterday in Laurel county,
arrested Hugh McHargue, who was
charged with the seduction of a young
girl. He started on train with him for
this place to-day, and when he arrived at
Livingston Walter Mullins, one of
McHargue's friends, boarded the train.
The train had not run more than two miles
when, nearing tunnel which opens out
on the bridge over Round Stone creek,
Mullins entered the car, and slapping
Chunley on the shoulder told him he
wanted to see him on the platform quick.
Chunley went out, carrying his Wlnches-
ter with him. After reaching the platform
discussion ensued and the report of arms
aroused all the passengers. Mullins was
shot through the head and Chunlev
through the foot. Both fell from the
moving train off the bridge, a distance Of
about thirty feet.
The train was at once stopped and
backed up to the scene. Both men were
found dead, Mullins with his neck broken,
and Chunley with his head all torn to
pieces, making it difficult to tell whether
he was shot in the head or not But it is
supposed he was, as his brains were found
upon the car.step. In the confusion Nc
Hargue escaped, and his whereabouts is
still mystery.

ANGRY PROTESTS
Engiish and 5rish Journals Denounce
Father Ryan's Imprisonment.

Eds SHsn ana Sr'sh Journals Denounce
Father Ryan's imprisonment.
LONDON, December 25th-Father Ryan's
imprisonment proyokes much angry pro-
test from both The Irish and the English.
The Daily NelcS, however, though describ-
ing this as Batour's latest outrage, takes
occasion to say: We regard it. and have
regarded it, as necessarily Illegal in form,
incapable of being used honestly. But
Father RYAN was sent to prison for making
the people practice this Illegal dishonest
plan" The Daiy Nelos therefore is in
some danger Of being denounced by fervent
home-rulers as q baek-slider.
The feeling among Irish Catholics is that
a government capable OF sending priests TO
prison is capable Of anything This tends
to deepen the hatred of the Government,
but also for the time being to quie;ness,
and on the whole, under the relentless en-
forcement of the Crimes Act, Ireland is
quieter on the surface
